Describe facilitated diffusion of ions through the channel proteins

Biology
1 answer:
Amiraneli [1.4K]3 years ago
4 0

Facilitated diffusion is usually significant to pass the ions across the hydrophobic layer of the plasma membrane. Transmembrane integral protein and careers proteins provide the channels that allow the ion to pass across the membrane.  When an ion bind to their active site on the protein (note that the proteins are very selective), the protein changes conformation. It is this change in conformation opens up the channel that allows the ions to be passed across the membrane. When the ions are released inside of the cell, the protein resumes normal shape (and the channel also closes) and the active site becomes available again or another ion.

How are luminosity and magnitude related?<br>(In your own words) ​
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

Luminosity is an intrinsic(natural) measurable property of a star independent of distance. The concept of magnitude, on the other hand, incorporates distance. The apparent magnitude is a measure of the diminishing(decrease) flux of light as a result of distance according to the inverse-square law.
